Perhaps no one knew the intensely private William Faulkner better
than his brother John. At the time of Bill's funeral, a reporter
remarked that seeing John walking the streets of Oxford,
Mississippi, was like encountering the ghost of his brother. Indeed
John and Bill were mirrors of one another in many ways. In this
memoir we find an intimate and at times humorous portrait of
William and his brothers from childhood through adulthood. John
provides a keen view of the local characters and situations that
Bill later used in his novels. John provides us a rare look into
the soul of the Nobel Prize-winning author of such classics as The
Sound and the Fury, As I Lay Dying, and Absalom, Absalom My Brother
Bill was first published in 1963, the year following William
Faulkner's death. This edition includes seventeen photographs and a
foreword by Jimmy Faulkner, son of the author and nephew of the
subject (whom he knew as Brother Will).
